Brazilian OEM line manufacturer Mazzaferro has embarked on an ambitious expansion plan which it hopes will increase its exports by 35% in the next five years.

The company, the second largest producer of monofilament line in the world, is following up its appearance in Beijing with a scheduled debut at ICAST, the world’s largest fishing tackle trade show, in July.

Mazzaferro currently exports to 30 countries across the world, but its markets are predominantly based in Latin America in countries that include Mexico, Bolivia, Peru and Bolivia.

Trader Edson Mattar Junior said: “With the ability to produce two million spools of line per month, we have the capacity to increase our sales further and have targeted overseas growth. Our presence at China Fish and proposed appearance at ICAST is an indication our intent, as well as our visits to trade events in Australia and South Africa alongside Russia’s Hunting and Fishing Show.

“We are exploring all areas across the globe and can offer any potential partners a range of monofilament, fluorocarbon and braided lines that are made from top quality German materials. They also include NTUV additives from Clariant, the largest expert in its field.”
